My grandpa

Donald Singleton Stewart, my grandpa I never met. You went to war at age 16 years and 9 months, but stated you were 18 years. Like so many, you put service to this country before all else at such a young age. I look at my own children, your great grandchildren, and I am forever grateful to all our Anzacs who fought so hopefully they won't have to.

Thank you grandpa. Lest we forget.
